Instead, Watch Dogs joins the ranks of a select few original blockbuster IP’s from trusted franchise developers (ex. Last of Us from Naughty Dog) which are primed to provide players with new, albeit very different, worlds to explore - and mysteries to solve. We touched briefly on the Watch Dogs announcement footage in a recent E3 trailer round-up but, for any readers who may have missed the opportunity to see the game in action - check out the Watch Dogs intro video as well as in-game footage below:...

The reigning Serie A champions were down 1-0 to Tottenham at halftime, on the strength of a Heung-Min Son goal after a first 45 minutes that saw Spurs control the play at Wembley Stadium. Down by a goal on aggregate and needing a least two to advance, Juventus then turned it on for a brief spell in the second half, with Gonzalo Higuain leveling the scoreline in the 64th minute....

Before the 23-year-old could set out for the event, he was handed a letter by one of the organizers. In the letter, were written probably some of the sweetest words an athlete would like to hear in their career. It was penned down by Masaki Kondo, the father of a 13-year-old teenager, Haruki, who had suffered from osteosarcoma on his right knee at the age of 10 and had surgery on his ‘rotation plasty’....

The 31-year-old was voted in as a reserve but couldn’t play due to injury in what could have been his fourth All-Star game appearance. The TNT crew happened to compare Gobert and Green during their interaction with the latter during the All-Star game showdown. Green was quick to shut down those talks, saying (via The NBA Central): Interestingly, Draymond Green and Rudy Gobert both happened to be on Team Durant for this year’s All-Star game....

For context, Canadian rocker Neil Young announced on January 24 that he was pulling his music from Spotify because the platform hosts The Joe Rogan Experience, which has been cited for spreading false information about vaccines. The move led to an avalanche of similar terminations and intense online debate. While Rogan has justified his stance, Spotify has refused to take substantial action against the podcaster, who has an exclusive deal with the platform which ranges above $100 million....

Klopp believes both players are in a similar class, pointing to their goal record in the Premier League to stress their importance to the team. He said: Klopp went on to add: Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah didn’t participate in any international competitions during the summer. That gave them the chance to rest properly and has in return helped them to start the 2021-22 campaign on the front foot....

It’s true–many members of the media are too white, too wealthy, too smug and too proud of themselves for having attended expensive Northeastern universities. They have health insurance and day care and the women have the annoying habit of retaining their maiden names after marriage. But so what? They are still among the few people in this country who spend a lot of time talking to other people-and actually trying to understand people–who are different from themselves....

The Chile international has struggled since swapping life in La Liga with Barcelona for that in England at the Etihad Stadium. Aguero still not clear on City future He was acquired for his ball-playing ability, with Pep Guardiola favouring his skill set over that of the ousted Joe Hart. Bravo has, however, struggled in the air and on the deck this season, with error-strewn performances leading to him dropping out of the City side....

So the question remains: did Ross Perot enrich the political process in 1992 or debase it? Give him his due. His 19 percent of the popular vote makes him the most successful independent presidential candidate since Theodore Roosevelt in 1912. Every independent for a generation will be measured against him. His legacy is a new kind of contract between voter and office-seeker, one that speaks to the hunger for unburnished substance over the slick, placating seamlessness of conventional polities-the “Lawrence Welk music,” to use his dated but dead-on description....

The Tuskers currently have 27 points from 16 matches and are two points behind fifth-placed Mumbai City FC. Will dropping two points hamper KBFC’s semi-final hopes? Head coach Ivan Vukomanovic said: However, the KBFC gaffer was quick to laud his players and said: Juan Ferrando reacts after ATK Mohun Bagan’s draw against Kerala Blasters FC The tie between ATK Mohun Bagan and Kerala Blasters FC lived up to its billing....

The unit of the Baltimore Police Department consisted of eight officers, all of whom have now been convicted for racketeering, robbery, extortion, and overtime fraud. Their crimes are charted in HBO’s new true crime drama from The Wire’s David Simon and George Pelecanos titled We Own This City, which stars Jon Bernthal in the title role of Sergeant Wayne Jenkins. Here, Newsweek looks at everything you need to know about the group and what it was they did....

The 28-year-old was axed from Aliou Cisse’s 23-man squad despite a fine season with his Premier League side – where he got eight goals and two assists in 22 English topflight games. Niasse had returned to the Teranga Lions’ fold after a two-year absence in the international friendly against Uzbekistan which ended in a 1-1 draw at the Stade Mohammed V. With his omission, AS Monaco’s Keita Balde, Stoke City’s Mame Diouf, Amiens’ Moussa Konate, Bursaspor’s Moussa Sow, Torino’s Mbaye Niang, Liverpool’s Sadio Mane plus Rennes duo of Diafra Sakho and Ismaila Sarr will lead the eight-man frontline....

Pulisic masterful in Dortmund triumph A hat-trick from Aubameyang saw Dortmund to a 4-0 win at home on Wednesday, completing a 4-1 success on aggregate in the Champions League last 16. Aubameyang was criticised after the opening leg, during which he missed a penalty, and Tuchel was thrilled to see improvement. “If I say that I expected this result it would mean that we have a lack of respect for Benfica....

Shocking Barcelona & Luis Enrique on the brink of disaster Schurrle and Dortmund were wasteful as the German visitors lost 1-0 to Benfica at the Estadio da Luz on Tuesday. It was a nightmare outing for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who missed a penalty and spurned two other one-on-one opportunities before being substituted by head coach Thomas Tuchel just after the hour. Aubameyang’s spot-kick was stopped by Benfica goalkeeper Ederson 13 minutes into the second half after Kostas Mitroglou’s 48th-minute opener, however Schurrle remains upbeat....

Six hours later, it did. As many as 5,000 machete-wielding militiamen and East Timorese gangs opposed to East Timor’s independence overran the offices of the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Atambua, a backwater border town on West Timor’s side of the divided island. While a handful of Indonesian police and soldiers stood by, the mob broke into the offices, smashed windows, computers and desks, and made preparations to torch the building....

Aubameyang saw his contract terminated by the north London club on transfer deadline day as he eventually secured a free transfer to Barcelona. Petit defended Arsenal boss Arteta over his decision regarding the situation with the Gabon international. The World Cup winner with France in 1998 told Gambling.com as quoted by The Sun: He added: Aubameyang was stripped off the Gunners’ captaincy on December 15th over a disciplinary breach....

[HTML1] Since it was first announced, Ubisoft’s upcoming open world game Watch Dogs has held consumer attention for the sheer volume of gamplay options and hacking skills placed at the player’s disposal. Those powers come courtesy of CtOS, a digital network tied into everything - and everyone - living in the game’s setting of a near-future Chicago, Illinois. The recent story trailer has offered a bit more insight into the quest for revenge that drives hero Aiden Pearce, but what of the city itself?...

I’m a senior at Duke University. I’m also an American, Arab in ethnicity and Muslim in faith. And I have firsthand experience of the prejudices many other Americans harbor toward those like me. Last June, when I was working as a congressional intern in the office of Rep. David Bonior, I was singled out at a White House meeting and escorted out of the building without any explanation-evidently condemned by my name and physical features....

The agreement came at the end of a protracted legal battle between the United States Women’s National Soccer Team and the governing body for the sport in the country, and promises to equalize pay for players of both genders. Sauerbrunn, as captain of the team, was one of the co-instigators of the gender discrimination lawsuit that eventually led to the deal. Taking to Twitter on Thursday, the American made sure to highlight the role played in this unprecedented success by other athletes belonging to other sporting disciplines over the years....
